Not the best.

Location is difficult and the hotel needs an update. The faux medieval decor is dated and the cobwebs in the bathroom show the need for a good clean. Not very good value for money.

Reception isnt manned after 6 so no support after this time and if you misplace your key 50 dollar call out fee as no one is on site. Good air conditioned room, had the king size, although small enough to move about. Good sized fridge in room. Main issue was the bed was incredibly uncomfortable, 2 single poor quality or old mattresses zipped together. We both had back pain the next day and neither of us suffer from this normally. Also if you are in the hotel you cant access the patio at 6ue front to sut out in the evening after 6 pm so on a nice night no where to go. No restaurant or bar in hotel either. Very disappointed.

On arrival about 7pm, we had to search for a receptionist. He took us to our room, opened the door, answered our questions about meals and left. We went straight to the restaurant. On return our door key did not work. Various guests helped by ringing but help did not arrive for half an hour. All very unsatisfactory.

The smallest room I think I have ever stayed in - had to leave some luggage in the car as there wasn't enough floorspace. Storage consisted of two coat hangers on the back of the door.

I think the reviews on this property are fraudulent. For the amount of money we paid for each room my goodness this was the worst experience in all of New Zealand. Rooms are tiny , old , tons of bugs. No dining onsite or in walking distance they had one restaurant brick kitchen but they seem to be always booked full. We lost a key had to pay $50 for replacement. Can you believe that a hotel charging money for a key ? No attendant after 5 PM. I regret staying here with my family. I’m surprised people rate anything in this hotel well. May be there are cottages that’s are better inside. Terrrible terrible terrible. Never stay here.

Don’t be fooled by the allure and charm of the outside…. They are very short staffed, and do not have anyone available after 7 pm. While we did receive detailed instructions for check in, we were not expecting a tiny room so small that one of us had to put our suitcase in the shower (and the other didn’t bother bringing it in at all). Our room was barely 100 square feet, if that. Harry Potter had more room in his cupboard under the stairs. There was hardly any space for toiletry bags in the bathroom, and because there was no outlet to plug the hot water kettle in other than in the bathroom, that meant for even less space. This room would have been fine for one person, but absolutely ridiculous to put two people who have been traveling on the road all day in such a small dwelling space.

Would never stay again. Over priced and noisey. Paid for a premium room got put in what appear to be what seemed like a spare room for after thoughts. Save yourself the hassle and just don't book here
